I'm interested in Skype, so I signed up for an account. Free long-distance calling has to be appealing. But when I located a computer headset, I realized there was nowhere on my Mac G4 cube that the plugs would fit.

The gadget above, which I ordered today, should complete the circuit. I had hoped to buy a Griffin iMic but prices were too high, even on eBay. -- Rachel
